La Ferté-Saint-Aubin (in French pronounced as /la fɛʁte sɛ̃.t‿obɛ̃/) is a commune in the Loiret department in the administrative region of Centre-Val de Loire, France.
The commune is traversed by the Cosson river.
During the Middle Ages, the area was known as La Ferté-Nabert and held as a lordship (French: seigneur de la Ferté-Nabert) beginning with Jean de Mornay, brother of the bishop and chancellor Pierre de Mornay.
In February 1939, the Chateau de la Ferté-Saint-Aubin was used for exterior shots in the celebrated Jean Renoir movie The Rules of the Game (French: La Règle du Jeu).
